“Sandy took wonderful care of my dog, Albert, and kept me updated with great communication throughout his stay. Albert clearly enjoyed hanging out with other dogs his size, and I could tell he was well cared for. I’d absolutely book with Sandy again!”


“Thank you so much for taking care of our cat, Atlas, during the two weeks we were out of the country. We really appreciated your daily updates and the care and attention you gave him throughout his stay. Your cat room was delightful, and it was wonderful to know that Atlas felt so comfortable and happy while we were away. We truly appreciate everything you did for him and would absolutely use your cat boarding services again. Thank you for taking such great care of our little guy!”

“Paul and Arnel were the best hosts! They were excellent communicators, sent us tons of pics of our boy, and did so many fun things with him. It really felt like they made him part of their family. I would highly recommend them to any pup parent.”

“This was my first time leaving any pet with anyone other than a family member and admittedly I was a little nervous about how it would all go. Our 5 month old puppy Sophie had an absolute blast staying with Jennifer, her family, and her dogs. Jennifer even sent me a few videos of Sophie running and playing with their puppy and older dog. My worries were put to ease when we arrived for drop off and there was a decorated chalk board outside saying “Welcome Sophie”. That little personalized thoughtful touch nearly made me tear up. Sophie was well cared for, happy and absolutely tuckered out when we got her home. Thank you Jennifer and family!”

“I was very excited to find Rosemary, after my original Rover sitter cancelled on me. We did a Meet and Greet beforehand, and Rosemary was so warm and friendly. I immediately felt at ease, and assured that the dogs would be in good hands. From beginning to end, Rosemary was very communicative, responded quickly, and followed up when she said she would. She sent updates and pics of how the dogs were doing during their stay. Rosemary understood the needs of our dogs. We will definitely use Rosemary in the future. She is a breath of fresh air, and a great sitter!”

“I have used Jared for dog sitting a number of times. Jared is always flexible and easy to booked with and I get plenty of updates and the pictures during my dogs stay :)”

“To start, Danielle had my dog for a daycare, and, everything went great. I received photos showing him walking with others and I know him well enough to know he was enjoying his time. I felt comfortable to go ahead and schedule two overnights with Danielle for him during my next work trip. Things I love about Danielle are that she really pays attention to what you say, the details. She is straightforward and not afraid to express any concerns (such as safety of certain types of collars etc.) Her communication has been excellent. She walks every day with multiple dogs and the pack is such an enjoyable place for my dog. I'm not inundated with photos, but, receive just enough to know he's doing well! We will be boarding at Danielle's as long as she'll have us 💜”

“Emily and Eric are so great with my dogs. I'm very comfortable leaving my elderly pug and my very fearful rescue dog with them. They give me regular updates and send pics daily, as well as lots of feedback when I pick my girls up. So glad I found them. Highly recommended.”

“Araceli is amazing. She was available at last minute for my babies and she always does an exceptional job. They love going to her house. She also has another husky which I know my dogs love. I would highly suggest her anytime. She is definitely my go-to”


“Moira is absolutely amazing—my dog Teddy compeltely ADORED her! She has a natural gift with dogs and made my anxious pup feel totally at ease (which is no small feat). She’s also a CHAMPION communicator, sending quick replies and the cutest updates that kept me smiling. Bonus: she’s not only affordable, but super flexible too, which made everything so easy. I swear my dog didn’t want to come back home… and honestly, I don’t blame him! Highly recommend 🐾✨”

“We had the best experience leaving Alfred with Josh! This was our first time leaving our senior dog with someone other than a friend and we were nervous but Josh made it very easy with daily updates, pictures, and videos. It was clear how happy and well taken care of Alfred was for the entire week we were gone. It made our trip 100x better because we knew Alfred was in such good hands and we could just enjoy ourselves. We will absolutely book with Josh again and cannot recommend highly enough!”
“Caitlin (Margaret) takes care of my August like he is one of their family. I get lots of pictures while I'm gone, so I know he is as spoiled there as he is at home. When I went to pick him up, August didn't want to leave! When I got him into the car he wasn't over-stressed and anxious, and he also wasn't over-tired. Just perfect!”

“Carrie did an awesome job watching my two dogs! Her house has a great fenced in yard and I got plenty of pictures of Blaze and Ember having a blast playing outside. Would recommend her to anyone looking to board their dogs!”

“Annika and John are wonderful! They took great care of my anxious and needy pup for a week and kept me in the loop with daily photos and updates which I really appreciated. They took note of all my dog’s needs and asked questions, I could tell they really cared. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with them and will happily rebook!”

“Jason and Lindsay & their boys were available at a moment's notice when my schedule sitter fell through. They provided Rosie with attentive and loving care, and I would absolutely trust them with my sweet girl anytime.”

“Kristen and her partner are the best! We had our pup stay at their house while we traveled for the week. Her communication was excellent- providing updates with photos every day, it was something our family always looked forward to. It was clear that our pup was happy at their home - large backyard to play in, lovely walks in the neighborhood, a space to hide upon hearing fireworks, lovely humans to keep him company. Highly recommend!!”

“Noemi was great! Very communicative, open and honest! My little guy is a senior and very anxious in new environments. By the 2nd day, I believe he was way more settled! She really cares for your pets while away and she even has her family to help assist which they all were friendly as well! I’ll definitely be booking again with Noemi!!”

“Amber and her family were awesome. She is definitely a Dog person. Went over and above any of my expectations. I feel very safe leaving any of my pets with her and her family. I will definitely use her again.”

“Madeline is absolutely amazing. I would recommend her to anyone. My pup had so much fun, I was nervous leaving him with anyone, she communicated the entire time. Sent me photos and lets me know how my boy is doing. Will be booking for more than a week next time. House is amazing very well prepared for any dog she takes care of. I was very much at peace while on my vacation knowing my pup is in good hands.”

“Sydney was so amazing with our cats! She made sure that they were well taken care of and got lots of love. We can't thank her enough for how well she took care of our cats!”

“This was our second time having Athena as our house & cat sitter. We would not hesitate to continue to work with her, assuming she would not mind continuing to stay with our crazy cats. Our girls were well cared for, obviously entertained, and the house was kept great. It’s challenging to find someone you can trust with not only your home but also your pets - who in our case feel more like children given our CrazyAnimalPeople ways. Athena made us comfortable and clearly took great care of our girls who tend to be a bit high maintenance.”

“This is the first time I have used Avery for the sitting of my two cats Ozzy and Luke. Avery came into my life at a time where I had Medical concerns that needed by full attention and to know that my boys were taken care of twice a day and with the utmost care meant everything to me. She even did little tasks around the house that kept my home running when I was not there to oversee it. In my mind she went above and beyond. You cannot go wrong with choosing Avery and she is very conscientious caring and responsible! I have ended up moving away and may not see much of her going forward but I think we will be staying close friends now and into the future! She's that kind of person! Thank you Avery!”

“Tayla was amazing! She left detailed notes after each visit with tons of pictures. She was flexible, communicative, and quick to respond to any questions/concerns. My cat can be timid around strangers at times but went up to Tayla immediately. I’d be happy to book her again :)”


“Erin was a perfect for daily play and feeding visits for Molly cat. She was quick to reply and gave regular updates during my two week vacation. I will be working with Erin in the future for sure!!”

“Josh is everything you want in an animal care person - reliable, thoughtful, genuine, caring, available, and excellent! We’ve partnered w him several times and they’ve all been great!”

“HUGE Dana fan!! I needed to book someone semi-last minute to watch my senior cats while I was away for the holidays, and Dana was so warm and kind from the very beginning of our interactions. Meeting in person sealed the deal! She asked thoughtful questions, was thorough about their eating specifications/etc, and approached my kitties with gentleness and patience. While away, she sent the cutest pictures and left detailed info about each visit which set my anxious mind at ease. Needless to say, both Dana and my old ladies became best buds! I can’t recommend her enough!! ♥️😸”

“Carmen was so accommodating and kind when watching Ollie. Her communication was great and very appreciated, I would certainly have her watch my cat again. Thank you!!”

“Jourdan was able to help with a last minute drop in that allowed me to take care of some time sensitive family matters. Her communication, knowledge, and care went above and beyond. I was able to do what I needed to do, while also knowing my diabetic cat was in the best hands possible. Thank you again, Jordan!”

“Chelsea is amazing! We will definitely be re-booking with her! She is great with communication, asking any questions, and thorough in her visits and follow ups.”

I am attentive to the needs of pets and I look forward to providing care for your fuzzy friends! I am a college student with a light schedule so I have lots of availability to spend taking care of your animals! Mornings and afternoons are generally pretty free. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to respect your space and follow your instructions exactly. I maintain their regular routine for feeding, walking, and any medications, and I send regular updates with photos so you always know how they’re doing. I aim to keep your pet relaxed and stress free while you're away!

“Deanna was a great host to my little kitty for 7 days. Her apartment was spotless and she was very accommodating with pick up and drop off times. I didn't have cell service on my trip so I didn't ask for/need updates but it was offered. I had a feeling my little kitty would be just fine and she was! Deanna's cat Lola was a sweetheart and it was good to hear that our cats became fast friends. I will certainly be having Deanna watch Lil' Kitty again!”


About: I have lived with and taken care of cats my entire live. At the age of 12, I began volunteering at the Oregon Humane, where I spent time cleaning litter boxes, socializing, and providing enrichment to cats of all ages and personalities. From kittens to seniors, social cats or cats who prefer their space and alone time, I have the patience and experience to care for them.

“Amazing! I feel so lucky to have found Mark! Clovie loves it there. She comes back to me happy. Since she started going, she has been doing even better with listening and following cues! Mark is so flexible, understanding and super easy to work with. Thanks Mark, you’re the BEST!”

“Upon initial meet and greet, Margaret was very organized and caring making sure to understand all of Romans needs, allergies, and activity levels. He ran a ton to get his energy out so knocked out right when we got home. Margaret creates a great space for daycare for small to mid-sized doggos.”

“Storm takes a bit of time to get comfortable in new environments with new people, but she seemed to settle in easily with Gil and Peaches! We are so thankful they are patient with her separation anxiety and welcome her on daycare days!”

About: I am a nurse, but I have always wanted to work with dogs, and I see this Pet Care opportunity as a chance to fulfill my childhood dream. I'm thrilled with this pet care opportunity because of my deep love for animals. I believe my nursing experience will be valuable, as caring for patients has taught me compassion and attention to detail, which I hope to bring to the pets in your care. I would love to contribute to your team and learn from your experiences in pet care. Thank you for considering me, and I look forward to connecting and sharing our mutual enthusiasm for animals. I am happy to adjust my schedule if needed to help out, so please feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss specific times. Looking forward to your response. I understand how important your pet is to you, and I am committed to providing attentive, loving care that ensures their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I strive to engage with animals in ways that help them feel secure and appreciated, including maintaining familiar routines. My home features a spacious, fenced yard where we enjoy daily walks and playing fetch. I have experience caring for my own pet, Macy and in my childhood other animals such as parrots, fishes, and even a monkey. One of my favorite moments with dogs is play fetch—seeing their excitement always reminds me just how rewarding caring for animals can be. I take my responsibilities seriously and am always eager to learn more about each pet’s unique personality and age. To help maintain a safe environment, I kindly ask that your dog be protected with Simparica or a similar product recommended by your preferred veterinarian, such as Frontier, which guards against ticks and fleas Please let me know if you have any specific concerns, preferences, or special requests. I am open to feedback and happy to adapt to your pet's unique needs and routines. I am available for a meeting any day this week to discuss your loved one’s requirements, and after our meeting I will tailor my care to your pet’s needs. Thank you again for entrusting me with this important responsibility. I look forward to meeting you and your pet, and to providing compassionate care that brings you peace of mind.

Thank you again Michael!!”

“Anastasia was an amazing caretaker for our puppy! We last minute needed to find a sitter and she was able to accommodate. She was very easy to communicate with, and provided lots of photos and updates. It helped ease our minds leaving our puppy with someone for the first time. Would definitely recommend!”

Having raised 2 dogs and several cats through medical conditions and several moves, I’ve become very attuned to their body language which helps me to understand their needs and wants.

About: I have been the go-to sitter for friends and family for over ten years and recently started taking clients through TrustedHousesitters. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs of varying temperaments and can accommodate a range of special needs, from senior pets to administering medication. I'm comfortable managing feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and keeping homes clean, tidy, and secure while owners are away. I'm calm, respectful, and attentive, and I love to keep pets happy, comfortable, and settled in their usual routines while their owners are traveling. Pet care fits easily into my schedule - I work part time, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, feeding, playtime, and anything else they need. In the client’s home, I’m respectful and committed to keeping things clean, secure, and just as they left them, so pets stay safe and comfortable.

I'd love to take care of your pet while you're away and understand the importance of pictures and updates to know your best friend is safe and well cared for. I'm currently working full time as a sitter, dog walker and pet boarder. Focused on one pet boarding at a time. I only accept one pet/pet family at a time. I will take multiple pets but only from the same home. I have a fenced yard with space to run and play. I have one athletic and friendly dog, she is a 35 lb mixed breed who loves to chase balls, sticks and frisbees. She is friendly with other dogs, though cautious around large breeds, she warms up quickly. The backyard has easy access inside for all dogs, and water always available for pets.

About: I have cared for all sorts animals my whole life, from as small as a gerbil to as large as a llama. I have previous experience working in a boarding kennel and veterinary office. I have experience working with special needs animals and administrating medications. I work full time, 6-8 hour shifts 5-6 days a week. I am almost always done with work between 1 and 2 pm at the latest. I don't have consistent days off but can be flexible with availability. For pets who need extra care throughout the day (potty breaks every 4 hours, 3+ meals, etc.), I can typically work accommodations into my schedule. **I am not currently accepting new clients looking to book overnight house sitting for more than 3 consecutive nights. I am well-versed in behavioral signs of animals and will make them feel safe and trusted while I am in their homes. My main goal is always to support your pets in whatever way they need.
About: I have been been dog sitting since I was in high school and love it. I first started by watching some of my friend's family dogs and am now looking to expand to others! I have been trusted to walk dogs, feed, and I have even given medications and shots to dog so am familiar with caring for elderly/sick dogs. I have taken some of my own family's dogs to training programs so am familiar with standard dog training practices. I’m currently unemployed so have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am free weekdays and weekends both day and night! Since I am not working at the moment, my schedule is very open and flexible. I live in an apartment building so don’t have a yard. I take my own dog on many walks a day and take him outside when needed. My own dog is not crate trained and is used to being out and roaming the house while we are at work. But he can also be closed in our bedroom to keep your dog comfortable, if needed.
About: I have owned dogs and cats for many years. I always take care of my families pets when they are on vacation. Some call me the “dog whisperer”. Can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I work for myself, so I have all the time in the world. I am available anytime for your pets needs. Excited to get to know your animals. I love to play fetch, snuggle, walk dogs. Always make sure they need to go out every couple of hours. Make sure they have food and water and are comfortable with me.
“My dog instantly connected with Mari and gets so excited when she comes over for weekly walks. Mari is personable and communicates well. She always tracks and takes at least one photo while out and about. I would recommend her 100%.”

About: I have been a veterinary assistant for 4 years and have basic knowledge of training dogs from puppies to seniors. I understand how important it is for dogs to have mental stimulation and no dog is too big or small. I work full time, but have lots of weekend availability that I'd love to spend with your pet! I do volunteering on the weekend, but can definitely do work arounds to make sure your loved one is cared for. I understand how sacred fur babies are to us and putting trust in a stranger can be scary. Its very important to me for dogs wear collars when going outside, even if just the back yard. I love routines will follow your pets normal routine in their environment. I will respect your home and property, strictly following any instructions provided.
About: I believe great pet care starts with trust. I'm dependable, reliable, and patient, and I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I take the time to make pets feel safe and comfortable while giving them the attention and care they deserve. Before pursuing pet sitting, I worked remotely for an international dog rescue, which further strengthened my passion for animal welfare and deepened my understanding of responsible pet care. Being part of an organization dedicated to rescuing and rehoming dogs reinforced my commitment to animal well-being, and strengthened the qualities I bring to pet care — compassion, patience, reliability, and attention to detail. In the past, I volunteered with a local animal rescue where I primarily cared for cats. I currently volunteer with a rescue where I mostly help with dogs, as well as assisting at various fundraising events. I especially love meeting our supporters and their pets at these events. It’s heartwarming to see them enjoying these functions alongside their pets! Volunteering has reinforced my commitment to providing patient, compassionate, and reliable care, and I look forward to giving every pet the same attention and kindness I would want for my own. My schedule is currently very flexible, which means I have plenty of time to give your pup or kitty the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Whether it's walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I'll be there to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you're away. From my experience, I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I always follow each owner's care instructions closely. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or providing drop-in visits, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh food and water, potty breaks, and lots of affection. I take the time to get to know each pet's unique personality and comfort level, whether they're energetic and playful or prefer a quieter, more relaxed environment. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in reliable, compassionate hands. I'm also happy to provide updates and photos during each visit so you can see how your pet is doing!

About: I come from a very large family (7 sisters 3 brothers) and we grew up with dogs, cats and other animals my entire life. I’ve also had my own dogs and cats as an adult and do pet sitting for my mom and siblings Currently looking for employment so I have a lot of free time ( will update once that changes). Recently moved to Portland and don’t have any pets currently to take up my time. I follow client care instructions to the letter. I love taking walks and exploring the city so I’ll make sure your dog has been worked out if they have a lot of energy. Taking care of animals for so long I feel that I am very emotionally intelligent in how I interact with any pet.
About: As the proud owner of four dogs and a cat, I understand the importance of pet care and providing a safe, loving environment for animals. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience in managing the needs of a variety of pets, from daily walks and feeding to providing companionship and attention. I believe in treating pets like family, and I apply that same care and dedication to every animal I look after. I’m currently working full time but have more availability in the summer as I have them off as a teacher. I am free most weekends and have time after 3pm daily during the weekdays (excluding Wednesdays). I will treat your home with respect and care if you’ll have me and make your animals feel at ease in a familiar environment. I am open to drop in, take dogs for walks, or spend quality time depending on your needs!

“Thank you so much for taking care of our cat, Atlas, during the two weeks we were out of the country. We really appreciated your daily updates and the care and attention you gave him throughout his stay.

I felt comfortable to go ahead and schedule two overnights with Danielle for him during my next work trip. Things I love about Danielle are that she really pays attention to what you say, the details. She is straightforward and not afraid to express any concerns (such as safety of certain types of collars etc.) Her communication has been excellent. She walks every day with multiple dogs and the pack is such an enjoyable place for my dog. I'm not inundated with photos, but, receive just enough to know he's doing well! We will be boarding at Danielle's as long as she'll have us 💜”

I swear my dog didn’t want to come back home… and honestly, I don’t blame him! Highly recommend 🐾✨”

“We had the best experience leaving Alfred with Josh! This was our first time leaving our senior dog with someone other than a friend and we were nervous but Josh made it very easy with daily updates, pictures, and videos. It was clear how happy and well taken care of Alfred was for the entire week we were gone. It made our trip 100x better because we knew Alfred was in such good hands and we could just enjoy ourselves. We will absolutely book with Josh again and cannot recommend highly enough!”
“Kristen and her partner are the best! We had our pup stay at their house while we traveled for the week. Her communication was excellent- providing updates with photos every day, it was something our family always looked forward to.

Highly recommend!!”

“Madeline is absolutely amazing. I would recommend her to anyone. My pup had so much fun, I was nervous leaving him with anyone, she communicated the entire time. Sent me photos and lets me know how my boy is doing. Will be booking for more than a week next time. House is amazing very well prepared for any dog she takes care of. I was very much at peace while on my vacation knowing my pup is in good hands.”

“I’m always amazed at how relaxed Elaine is with dogs and kids and family, each with their separate needs. She went above and beyond to get the right medication for my dogs itchies.”

“Elaine was such an awesome help for Marshmello. She kept them for a couple days and did everything that was asked!! She send me many videos during his stay making it very easy for me to reach her as well. Highly recommend & I will be booking again!!”

“Beatrix seemed to have had a wonderful time with Lisa! Lisa was very communicative and even helped out providing her own when I forgot to bring the batch I had premade for B's special food addition, saving me time of having to run home when I had to catch a flight. She provided pictures every day and made sure Beatrix was settled when dropping her off at my home and even sent a video. She checked in with me when Beatrix's arthritis was acting up before giving the "as needed" meds. I will definitely use Lisa again!”

“Karilla was extra flexible with drop off and pick up times! She sent us photos of Sandy everyday which we appreciated. She was also flexible and careful to keep our dog away from male dogs as she was on the tail end of her heat cycle. I would book again.”

“A big thanks to Christopher, he made the whole process easy. We were able to relax on vacation knowing he was being cared for through updates and pictures. We definitely recommend him to others!”

“We love Debbie!! She is always dependable and takes great care of our dog. She also was so communicative and flexible when travel threw us curve balls and made sure we were able to reconnect with our dog after a long day.”

“Barry and his pup are fantastic hosts! I received many updates and photos which I really appreciate, and my dog was happy and healthy. Will definitely book with Barry again!”

“I have two dogs, one of which has separation anxiety pretty bad. Hannah was able to make them feel safe and comfortable. She sent frequent updates and was flexible and communicative. She was by far the best pet sitter my boys have stayed with.”

“My dog Remy had another great stay with Anastasia. I appreciate the awesome care and the pics/videos that she sent. I will definitely book with her anytime my dog needs boarding 😀”

“Heath and Amy were amazing! Super flexible with all drop off and pickup needs, they have a lovely family that clearly love animals. Our dog was super happy to spend over a week with them which isn't super common as she is typically a bit nervous about new home environments. Not in this case, she made herself right at home thanks to their welcoming presence and their own pup was the perfect playmate. We will definitely be reaching out to them for future dogsitting needs.”

“Dahlias enjoyed her visit with Michael. He gave her a lot of personal attention and belly rubs. She is a nervous girl, and he helped her to feel safe and comfortable.”
“Marley had a great time meeting with Sarah's and other canine friends. He is quite a social gadfly, so he loved the high amount of social interaction during Spring Break week. He came back to us happy and socially well adjusted. Great trip for him to Sarah's place and for us on vacation. Thanks Sarah!”
